   I have a couple of Hubs that I would like to make better if possible, thank you for any constructive criticism.
   
   This one took off after a while and I can find it in the second place, third place under many keywords, what do you think I should do to make t to first place, or is it at its peak?
   http://hubpages.com/hub/US-Marine-Corps … d-you-Join
   
   This one has some traffic but very small, anything I can do to make it better?

   Thank you

   Hi Ruben,
   
   I think your hubs look great. Your picked a specific niche, and will probably get many readers interested in that niche, but maybe not from the general public. That may explain the traffic. Have you done any keyword research to find out how much traffic you could expect if your hubs landed in first place?

   Ruben - you're badly lacking tags and appropriate headers.
   
   Some tags:
   Us marine corps boot camp
   Us marine corps ranks
   Us marine corps history
   Us navy
   Young marines
   Marines for life
   Us marine corps uniform
   Us navy seal
   Marine corps emblem
   Marine corps logo
   United states marines
   Marine corps
   United states military
   Marine corps institute
   Marine corps orders
   Marine corps league
   Marine corps association
   Marine corps jobs
   Commandant of the marine corps
   Marine corps university
   Marine corp
   Marine corps cadence
   
   Any of the above could be used (appropriately) as tags, one or two could be used as headers. You have the content, you have the interest of your readers. Just lacks some on-page SEO.
   
   I looked at your marine corps one by the way - I'm assuming the other could do with the same polish.
   
   A few tweaks, add a little more content (not that you need it, just to freshen it up, say 10% ish) and see what happens. A few backlinks won't hurt it either. You've picked a good topic, I'm sure there's plenty of miltary related sites that you could approach

      Frogdropping,
      That was excellent feedback and suggestions. I am sorry I missed those when I looked at the hub. I will have to polish up my skills on feedback.
